Root [ROM]CM10 - Boost Force[WIP]

tried the stock zimage and for some reason it still wouldnt load, i dont know what the hell that was about but it always gave the same complaint about module layout being wrong even when it wasnt in that case. it makes no sense at all really


if you are use the stock zImage, you should also be using the stock wlan.ko and the stock firmware

youd think so wouldnt you? but ive tried it before and it wouldnt work for whatever reason, not sure why

as far as the built kernel i was using with this module, it is VERY disagreeable

not sure what is up with this phone really, its just weird and pissy. got almost everything working on it, all i can think of thats missing is the proximity sensor, this wifi crap, and bluetooth a2dp though all other bluetooth functions seem to work, ive tried input, file transfer, and headset myself they all function perfectly but it gets really angry when you try to do a2dp

flashing now... back in a few
 
same thing, operation not permitted, wlan device not found


hmm
ok

\
well the only other thing I can suggest is to

Use stock zImage, packed with yout cm10 ramdisk
make sure stock wlan.ko is used
and stock wifi firmware


make sure you make the init scripts executable

you can do this

adb shell
chmod -R 777 /system/etc


or you can add this to your install script

set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.goldfish.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.qcom.bt.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.qcom.fm.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.qcom.coex.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.qcom.modem_links.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh");
set_perm(0, 1000, 0755, "/system/etc/init.qcom.sdio.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.qcom.wifi.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/etc/init.wlanprop.sh");
 
there was a zte rom that I was working on

and if that /system/etc/init.qcom.wifi.sh

was not executable

wifi did not work, do not remember what the error was though
 
yea i might very well try it again, tinker some more at some point right now though with it being my only source of internet im not gonna dive into it that deep. if someone else wants to though thatd be nice. im pretty sure ive tried setting everything up properly though it no matter what i do it never seems to load right
 
yea i just saw that it wasnt, not sure why it wouldnt be thats kinda silly. ill check into it all when im not using the net sometime see if i can get the stock kernel and stuff to work or this to work or whatever

OK

good luck
 
Flashed it on top of the original cm rom, and Wifi still doesnt turn on

i knew i wasnt crazy lol. it throws the same error in dmesg about mismatched module layout symbol. no idea why but it does. the rom for the sister device that this is based heavily off of has wifi tho using the exact same setup, makes absolutely no sense
 
Is there any other way I can help in this situation, I really want at least WiFi working because I use my phone as an iPod.
 
i am really not sure, dont know enough about whats wrong with it to do anything about it just know that the new module cant find the hardware and the old one wont load due to problems with the module layout symbol, if hroark or someone else comes up with something though im sure just keeping an eye out and testing will be of great help, cant say when that will be or if it will ever get fixed though
 
i just realized something, whatever boot.img i flashed last, broke the bluetooth as well... i tried turning it on and it wouldnt go, couldnt find the driver
 
I'm pretty noob at this but, would the boot.img possibly have a fix for our wifi issue?

no it was a test at fixing the wifi issue but the wifi drivers in the kernel itself were somehow broken as were the bluetooth ones for whatever reason, it actually made things worse lol
 
this on the other hand...
Open Source Notices - ZTE Devices - Bringing you closer
may or may not help, apparently we complained so much that they devoted a special site to shutting us up lmao

took me a while but i finally got an email back from zte confirming that they uploaded the source

Either that, or they finally have enough resources and time to be a real company now. I predict in a few years, ZTE will be up there with Samsung and LG in terms of total device sales and marketing

Check out this how-to. it's about how to change the module layout in a module throwing that error to match with other modules that will load.

Basically you can take a module that is loading properly, open it in a hex editor like hxd (pretty good free Windows hex editor). open both modules and make them side by side and search for the ascii string 'module' without quotes (you should find the ascii string module_layout or something like that), then when you find that string in both modules. copy the 4 hex values that precede the word module from the one that loads to the one that won't load (this way you can change the module layout without recompiling) and then the module throwing the layout error should load.

If it doesn't, check dmesg again to see if there are more errors.

Hope this helps! let us know if out works.

Cheers,
-SB
